• I HAVE TO SHARE MY STORY ABOUT MY TWO BEAUTIFUL GIRLS. THEIR NAMES ARE SKYLAR AND HALEY. SKYLAR IS 8 YEARS OLD AND HALEY IS 5. I DECIDED TO THROW THEM A BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY TOGETHER IN THE SUMMER, SO THEY CAN INVITE ALL THEIR FRIENDS FROM SCHOOL. FOR ME ITS JUST EASIER THAT WAY PLUS ITS GOOD ON THE WALLET... WITH THAT SAID, MY GIRLS CAME TO ME AND ASKED IF EVERYONE CAN DONATE A PAIR OF OLD SHOES SO THEY CAN GIVE THEM TO AN ORPHANAGE. THAT IS HOW SKYLAR AND HALEY'S CAUSE WAS BORN.I KNEW THERE WASN'T ONE HERE IN BUFFALO. SO I SENT OUT AN EMAIL TO A FRIEND OF MINE WHO SUGGESTED THE CITY MISSION. THIS IS WHERE THEIR CAUSE BEGAN.

    SKYLAR AND HALEY HAD THE HONOR TO TAKE A TOUR OF THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN'S SHELTER. THEY GOT TO SEE FIRST HAND WHO AND HOW THEY WERE HELPING. I HAVE NEVER SEEN TWO LITTLE GIRLS SO HURT BUT TOUCHED ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

  • Household gifts?! Oh, you should have!Household gifts?! Oh, you should have!As far as I'm concerned, household gadgets and cleaning gear have a unfair reputation for being bad gifts. What's important in a Mother's Day gift is both the intent and the message the present imparts. Does the tool you've chosen say "Get in the kitchen and make me some pancakes, woman!"… or "I love and respect you, and this practical yet beautiful thing seemed like something you might enjoy?"

  • Tips and destinations for a stress-free getaway with your girlfriends

    By Laura Sullivan

    You're swaddled in a robe, lounging with your pals, fruity beverage in hand, watching the sun set over a pool. No, this isn't a dream, ended by the wallop of your kid throwing himself on you. It's your next vacation. Here's how you can make it reality:

    Set the date. It'll never happen if you don't! Strategically pick a downtime with your partner, taking his schedule into account, and he'll be less likely to balk later. A long weekend is a good choice, so you won't worry about whether the homework's getting done or who's picking her up from preschool. But lower midweek rates may justify the trouble of working out those details. Whatever time frame you settle on, consider making the trip a tradition, so it becomes an annual question of where you're going, not if.

    Sort out finances. The earlier you plan, the more money you'll be able to save. Or target Mother's Day, your birthday, or

  • cotton ballsThese bathroom mainstays make your manicure -- and makeup removal -- a breeze, but guess what else they can do!

    Scent the room
    Saturate a cotton ball with your favorite cologne and drop it into your vacuum cleaner bag. Now, as you vacuum, the scent will be expressed and gently permeate the room.

    Deodorize the refrigerator
    Sometimes the refrigerator just doesn't smell fresh. Dampen a cotton ball with vanilla extract and place it on a shelf. You'll find it acts as a deodorizer, offering its own pleasant scent.

    Fight mildew
    There are always hard-to-reach spots in the bathroom, usually around the fixtures, where mildew may breed in the grout between tiles. Forget about becoming a contortionist to return the sparkle to those areas. Soak a few cotton balls in bleach and place them in those difficult spots. Leave them to work their magic for a few hours. When you remove them, you'll find your job has been done. Finish by rinsing with a warm-water wash.

  • hughmacleodHappiness interview: Hugh MacLeod.

    Hugh is a cartoonist with a wildly popular blog, gapingvoid. He is the master of capturing a large idea in a single drawing, and a great deal of his work focuses on happiness: how to find happiness in work; how to have the courage to be yourself, do what you love, and take risks; how to build a life around your own values, interests, and temperament.

    He has a new book, Freedom Is Blogging in Your Underwear, where he explores how blogging, and the intellectual and creative freedom it gives him, changed his life.

    Having a blog isn't the right route to happiness for everyone, of course. But zoikes, it's a thrilling tool. And his book is really about how to think big for yourself and the possibilities that the internet offers.

    Gretchen: What's a simple activity that consistently makes you happier?
    Hugh: Besides being with my loved ones, the most important and happiest part of my daily routine is finding that quiet, solitary one- or
